Christmas Comes Early…
Spent part of Bank Holiday MOnday at the Lockinge point-to-point, the annual meeting which raises thousands of pounds for the local Old Berks Hunt. It snowed, and it was freezing, but there was still a very good turn out (including three MPs spotted). It last snowed there in 1985, when people tobogganed merrily down the lanes of the car park.

Ed, on the subject of bank/public holidays, I wonder if you have a view on the fact that we have four bank holidays between March and May and none at all between August and December? Maybe you could have a word with David Cameron about the issue.
We only get 8 days a year, compared to 11 in France, 15 in Germany and 18 in Spain.
